Sam was an amazing tour guide. He discussed all of the history of each temple. He was really knowledgeable. The temples are stunning and lunch was delicious. It was nice and quiet at the temples as well.
Lok is an amazing guide, he’s kind and helpful and knowledgeable, the temples are breathtaking
We were looking for a tour to Bemmelia and it came out! It was a long way away, so you definitely should take a tour! chenda was very knowledgeable and kind and took a lot of pictures⭐︎ Bemmeria was definitely the top tourist destination I visited in Cambodia!
The guide Chenda is great, definitely would recommend this trip!
A big thank you to Chenda for his knowledge, his culture, his patience, his explanations, and his sense of humor. It was a real pleasure to go on the outing with him. And what's more, he takes magnificent photos. 😉
I had a fantastic day with my guide, Mr. Sarun, and the driver on the Koh Ker and Beng Mealea tour. I was the only person who signed up for the trip, so it felt like a private tour :) Sarun explained everything very well, from the history and traditions to the details of the beautiful carvings. He was knowledgeable, patient, and made the visit much more meaningful. He also took many great photos for me throughout the day, which I really appreciated. In the end, he even bought me a coconut, and it was delicious! It was a wonderful day, and I highly recommend this tour, especially with Sarun as your guide.
A absolute must-recommend for friends visiting. Beyond having great English, our tour guide Nara provided exceptional introductions and top-tier service. It is truly a safe place to travel. An unforgettable and enriching journey! 朋友來必推薦，導遊Nara除英文好，溝通及服務態度極具水準，同時也感受到柬埔寨人民的友善，這是一個安全旅游的地方。
We had a fantastic day exploring the Koh Ker Temple and Beng Mealea, and a big part of what made the experience so memorable was our guide, Nara. Nara is incredibly knowledgeable about Cambodian history, archaeology, and the stories behind each temple. He explained everything in a way that was engaging and easy to understand, giving us a much deeper appreciation of these remarkable ancient sites. His historical insights made the temples come alive, and we learned so much throughout the day. What impressed us even more was his genuine passion for his work. It was clear that he loves sharing Cambodia's rich heritage with visitors. He was friendly, patient, and always happy to answer our questions, making sure everyone felt included and enjoyed the experience. He also knew the best spots for photos! Koh Ker Temple Group and Beng Mealea are both spectacular and well worth visiting for anyone looking to experience Cambodia beyond the more popular temple sites. The combination of fascinating history, stunning architecture, and peaceful surroundings made for an unforgettable day. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Cambodia.
A wonderful day, rich in cultural and human discoveries. A small group of 3 people with whom I shared moments that I will remember at Koh Ker and Beng Melea. Sarun knew how to share his enthusiasm and knowledge with us, while talking about his history and that of his country. Thanks also to our driver.

We sincerely value your recommendation and look forward to welcoming you again for more enriching experiences. Best Regards, Lucy Siem Reap Shuttle Team
Had a lovely day seeing Koh Ker and Beng Mealea as well as some smaller but still just as beautiful temples. This area has much less tourism which was nice, making photographs a little easier. Our tour guide Phyrom and driver Chen were both fantastic, you get to learn the history of Angkor Wat and information about all the temples. The local knowledge was exceptional and Phyrom also helped me with finding a place to buy some trekking shoes which was a nice touch,
Dear Liam, We’re delighted to hear you had such a lovely day exploring Koh Ker and Beng Mealea, along with the smaller temples that make the journey so special.

Your kind words about Mr. Phyrom and Mr. Chen mean a great deal to us. Phyrom’s exceptional knowledge and thoughtful guidance, along with Chen’s friendly driving, make the experience both informative and comfortable. It’s wonderful to know Phyrom went the extra mile to assist you with finding trekking shoes — a personal touch that reflects our commitment to caring for our guests. We greatly appreciate your recommendation and are thrilled the tour left you with such memorable impressions. We look forward to welcoming you again for more enriching adventures and inspiring journeys in Cambodia. Best Regards, Lucy Siem Reap Shuttle Team
